Abstract

The present invention is concerned with a process information and maintenance system for monitoring, visualizing, triaging and maintaining all control loops of a distributed control system. It gives the users the number of control loops in the plant, the number of loops that are routinely in manual mode, which loops are frequently in alarm, which loops need tuning, etc.
